Now, of course, my critique!
I remember most of these films. After all, I was a car guy, as was The Old Man. I saw a lot of these movies with Dad & Mom at the Drive in.
All in all pretty good review, but to leave out “The Blues Brothers”, I believe 1977, is a damn shame.

BTW, the 71 Galaxy 500 that Gator drove in “White Lightning” was exactly the same car as my first car, “Henry The Ford” , but Henry was a 4 door hardtop with a 351 Windsor as opposed to Burt’s Coupe with the 429.
But if you flipped the aircleaner lid, that 2 barrel 351 would give you that cha-whoosh sound that Burt’s 429 had! I guess it was the kick down on the accelerator pump.
Henry was known, and still remembered by my buddies for his hubcap tossing donuts, and his talent for jumping through covered bridges!
That was a fun time to be a teenager. I guess I'm lucky to still be around!

That was the first one that came to mind. 10 minutes of intro and an hour long car chase! Eleanor took a real beating!

Many tend to compare later chase scenes with the one in 1968's Bullitt but none come close.
